Paul Samuelson vs. Charles Teibout
Fiscal Federalism- is the system of transfer payments or grants by which a federal
government shares its revenue with lower levels of government. Federal
governments use this power to enforce national rules and standards.
Devolution- is the statutory granting of powers from the central government of a
state to government at national, regional or local level. The devolution can be mainly
financial, for example: giving areas a budget which was formerly administrated by
central government.
Monocentric Urban Model- a model in which all employment is located in the
CBD (Central Building District), and the number of trips per worker is fixed, the number
of miles a household travels is proportional to how far from the CBD it is located. This
depends on the rent gradient it faces and on the marginal cost of travel, which, in general,
varies with distance from the CBD.
